About this property

Cottage in the Shade, 3 min walk to beach, restaurants, and pickleball crt.

  • Escape to this charming cottage in picturesque Bradenton Beach. Nestled within a tree grove, the cottage features 2 bedrooms. Five min walk to Bridge Steet and free trolley servicing the entire island.

    Due to the county's construction close by, sometimes active and sometimes not, $50 discount per night is factored into the price.

    Inside the cottage there is a nice living room with a futon, a galley kitchen, laundry room and a full bathroom. There is a shady backyard deck amidst the tree canopy . Enjoy pickle ball close by.

    Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, this comfy cottage is the perfect place to unwind. It is also located next door to our other 1 bedroom cottage (20112769) for those who wish to book both cottages together for group-family gatherings. To view, place that number where it says "Where to" and put in a date.

    Prices are based upon double occupancy (2 people). One or two additional people will be $50/night extra utilizing the 2nd bedroom.

    We look forward to hosting you at our place.

The location was great for me as I always walk or use the A.M.I. Trolley to get around. The cottage was well furnished, (as far as appliances and kitchen equipment). There were plenty of nice towels and linens. I would not recommend this location for a large group or family with small children, (no yard space for outside activities). The living room furniture and throw rugs are worn and dated. As a solo traveler I would stay there again as the size and location fit my needs very nicely. And communication with the owners was always positive and pleasant.

Love that the host, Randy, made a point of meeting us. He was kind and great to talk to. What a sweet place to stay! Lots of love has been put into this little house and the little details were not missed by us. It felt like a home away from home from simple decor to the little things provided such as a few hangers in the closet, coffee and other basics in the pantry, a hamper for laundry.. and an extra beach bag, which came in quite handy! The shade was so nice to have but I bet even more valuable in the warmer parts of the season. Our only wish was for a full-length mirror--that's it! Definitely would like to return and definitely encouraging family to stay in the same spot when they come down.

The cottage was absolutely adorable. Very spacious, comfortable and clean. The location is perfect for the pier, shops, restaurants and beach. The pickle ball court is a plus. So glad we discovered this gem. Hope to return in the future.

This is a great location if you plan to spend time in the Bridge Street area. Inside of home was clean and well stocked. Both of us found the hard foam beds to be very uncomfortable. A softer mattress topper may help here. Kitchen lights did not work which should really be fixed before renting out. Would be helpful to cleanup the side yard where you have to park.
